TABLE I. Co-Expression of CD44 and Sca-1 with Nestin in Mesenchymal Stem Cells.

Positive cells were counted in relation to total nuclei stained by DAPI. Data are mean +/- SE for 10 separate experiments. The increase in cells staining with nestin was significant (p < 0.001) as was the increase in the cells staining for both nestin and CD44 (p < 0.001) and nestin and Sca-1 (p < 0.05).

pre-induction (%) post-induction (%)
Nestin (+) cells 4.7 ± 0.8 14.2 ± 2.0
CD44 (+) cells 11.5 ± 1.6 11.9 ± 1.8
Sca-1 (+) cells 5.2 ± 1.5 5.0 ± 0.4
CD 44 & nestin (+) cells 3.4 ± 0.9 9.9 ± 0.9
Sca-1 & nestin (+) cells 2.8 ± 1.2 4.3 ± 0.5
